Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A ketone is an organic functional group that contains a carbon and oxygen atom bonded together through a double bond, that is, C=O.

For example, acetone $CH_{3}-CO-CH_{3}$ is a ketone.

Whereas a hydrocodone is a drug which is used to relieve from moderate to sever pain.It is mostly combined with other drugs and resulting in a chemical formula $C_{18}H_{21}NO_{3}.C_{4}H_{6}O_{6}$ .

A camphor is a volatile white color substance with chemical formula $C_{10}H_{16}O$ . It has aromatic smell and its taste is bitter.

A menthone is also an organic compound with chemical formula $C_{10}H_{18}O$ .

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent is acetone.

A 200-gram sample of a radioactive nuclide is left to decay for 60 hours. At the end of 60 hours, only 25 grams of the sample is

Goryan [66]

Half life is the time taken by a radioactive isotope to decay by half its original mass.
The original mass is 200 g
Time taken is 60 hours
Final mass is 25 g
Therefore;
Final mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n; where n is the number of half lives.
25 = 200 (1/2)^n
1/8 = (1/2)^n
n = 3
Three half lives = 60 hours
1 half lives = 20 hours
Therefore; the half life of the radioactive nucleus is 20 hours
